'''Double Strike''' is a tier Tier II [[skill]] in from the [[Barbarian]]'s [[Berserker Skill Tree]], which gives the barbarian a chance to swing both weapons. It is the prerequisite of [[Slashing Strike]].

Double Strike in Diablo 3 gives With extended combat training, the Barbarian the chance to swing both weapons at oncetrains his movement, it means so that when the chance activates (procs)he find opening spots in his foes' defences to get two hits in, you swing instead of just one of your weapons and then swing your other weapon. If we understand the term "swing" correctly, then it works like the normal attack, and has a chance to miss, to be blocked, to be parried, to use effects on the weapon (Ice for example), if such exist and to deal damage somewhere between the minimum and the maximum.

Double Strike is passive, giving the Barbarian a chance to swing both weapons at once. This means that when the chance activates (procs), you swing one of your weapons and then swing your other weapon without impairing or resetting the swing timer on the other weapon. If we understand the term "swing" correctly, then it means this extra attack works like the normal attack, and has a chance to miss, to be blocked, to be parried etc. It also has chance to use effects on the weapon (Ice for example), if such exist and to deal damage somewhere between the minimum and the maximum as usual. It becomes activated from the moment you spend a skill point into it. This skill is superb for duel dual wielding Barbarians of any character builds (as long as they duel wield)build. It is likely much more beneficial if the duel dual wielded weapons are high damaging in damage instead of fast.

''Double Strike'' was first seen in every Diablo 3 game demo to date, and was recently updated, judging from the latest [[BlizzCon 2008]] demo. An The earlier version of this skill had a much lower chance proc rate to proc the get a double swingthan the version seen at [[BlizzCon 2009]].<!--<gallery>Image:Diablo_III_Logo.jpg|Skill use 1</gallery>==Trivia==-->
